Remove formula and save results

If you want to save your results before you remove the formula, use the following
steps:

1. Copy the cells


Select all the cells in the range containing the formula. Right-click on any of the
selected cells and select "Copy" from the drop-down menu. You can also use the
keyboard shortcuts "Ctrl+C" or "Cmd+C."

2. Use "Paste Special" features


Once you've copied the cells, right-click on any cell in the range. In the drop-
down menu, select "Paste Special." In the dialog box that appears, select the
bubble next to "Values," then click "OK." If you use a device with the Windows
operating system, you can use a shortcut. While pressing the "Alt" key, press the
letters "E," "S" and "V" in sequential order. Then press "Enter." After completing
this step, your cells now contain values, and it deletes the formula automatically.
If your data looks accurate, consider saving your work.
